I think AGI will not be defined by scientific consensus but by a social/legal one. Experts will still argue if some software is AGI or not while people will simply start treating it like a conscious being. We already see people falling in love with LLMs and those are as different form a real person as you can get. The moment AI becomes more human like and people start interacting with them in a more natural way we will start seeing more and more people developing empathy for them and a slow process of granting them rights will begin (first informal ones, then formalized). There won't be a strictly defined point in time when we'll achieve AGI. It will be a long process.
